Like this?That turntable costs £10,000 more than we paid for our house thirty two years ago.
Do you consider yourself an audiophile?

Oh, we’re house-shaming now, are we?
I'd rather have the turntable.
But it's the best turntable. It's made from Francium and stardust.That turntable costs £10,000 more than we paid for our house thirty two years ago.

Cheeky git! Just because I called you on your bizarre eating habits.
Don't forget the unicorn testicles.

after a couple of years of looking around I have pretty much scored a nice pair of xtz 99.26s. bonus wasn't expecting the sub.
turns out a good mate of mine had them. I was looking for ages, they don't really come up for sale too often, there are a few pairs on hifi shark but they all abroad and the shipping cost just puts them out of reach.
they're pretty decent, were around 700 quid new but made with real quality components, like the ribbon tweeter. they are rated above many £1k sets.

Nice, but unless you’re going to mount them on isolation pods made of unicorn horn tips and wire them with silver thread hand knitted by artisans sat on a lay line, they have no place on this thread

they are best mounted on stands, I'll give you that.Nice, but unless you’re going to mount them on isolation pods made of unicorn horn tips and wire them with silver thread hand knitted by artisans sat on a lay line, they have no place on this thread

That’s funny, because I read a review that said hen’s teeth are best for isolation.Nice, but unless you’re going to mount them on isolation pods made of unicorn horn tips and wired with silver thread hand knitted by artisans sat on a lay line, they have no place on this thread

Proper break this time
This is true, but hen's teeth need to be damped with rocking horse shit, so many find unicorn more practical.

There is, but you need to be in space encased in a graphene tesseract approximately 72 miles from speakers 1,408 feet in diameter.
Which is not cost-effective given the marginal performance boost over wireless earbuds.

look at an external passive cross over, might have to be a bespoke thing though rather than off the shelf solution.

Yebbut, are they nano-oxygen depleted carboniferous soundscape-ready unobtainium?I've spent all my life listening to music through headphones costing less than £40.
Just bought myself a £250+ pair as I wanted noise cancelling that worked, and the difference is quite exciting..
ETA: I'm slighty worried there may be no going back.
Otherwise, they have no place on this thread. Come back when you've spent two orders of magnitude more on them

Blimey! I'm very impressed with the noise-cancelling as well. My early morning doze in bed was being ruined by the noise of rat-running cars. With these things on I can listen to the radio in peace! - No traffic noise at all..
These are the headphones:
There's a newer model out there..

£250 headphones have no place on this thread.
That's the starting price for a cable around here.
